Abstract (en)
[origin: WO8504591A1] A portable exercising device (10) having a toroidally shaped inner chamber (14). A free moving body (16) is placed into rotation within the chamber (14). The angular momentum of the body (16) provides a resistance to motion to enhance the exercising effects. In the preferred embodiment, the device (10) is ring-shaped and includes an elongated handle (20) mounted through a center aperture (18). The device (10) may also be used as a muscle tension reliever and as a coordination developer. Much of the prior exercising equipment is heavy and bulky and not portable. The device (10) claimed overcomes these problems by being light weight and portable while providing a satisfactory workout.
